The description on the E23 website included this bit:

Quote:
We will continually update this PDF as new rules (and rulings) are added; the next update (including War & Peace) is scheduled for January. (There is no reason to wait for it, since that update will be free. You can have a searchable PDF rulebook NOW!)


Now I notice that (like the hardcopy version) does not include the last two expansions Hydran Attack and War and Peace (though some rules from HA are included as draft rules.

Will HA also be inluded with W&P update? When specifically? Will future updates also be included at no charge?

Thanks in Advance.

The HA rules and the W&P rules will be included in the January update of the RRB. Basically, all published rules (not scenarios or ships; just rules) are intended to included in the RRB.

The only exceptions are those things "outside" the base rules: Borders of Madness from CL and Communique; and other "settings" like Middle Years, Early Years, and Omega.

According to SVC's daily blog (not the FC one) and a few other posts that he has made here, it is being worked on right now, and should be ready on Monday or Tuesday next week.

I am done except for one typo Mike W found, and changing the headings to another font, and deleting all of the black stars that marked updates. (The updates this time are white stars on black circles.) Should have it uploaded by Tuesday or Wednesday. Maybe even Monday.

That's great! I'll be buying both an e23 and printed copy. Speaking of which, will the printed version be available from ADB roughly when the e23 version is? Thanks,

Garrett

I am done with RRB6 (assuming Jean doesn't call with typo reports) and plan to give the PDF to Leanna this afternoon (as soon as Jean says yes/no to that). Leanna will be printing new RRB6s by tomorrow, and while she will probably send it to e23 today, the workflow cycle there will probably mean availability no earlier than tomorrow. (It's 1pm now, and if I had nothing else to do it would be 3pm before we could upload it, and that's 90% certain to be too late in the day to release today.)

The RRB6;s that we printed have been burned. I am waiting for staff reports on things to fix in RRB6a (missing 4S rule, offensive ADD chart, two or three rules updates including the tractor-vs-cloak thing) and expect to have it done by Monday-ish.

If you bought an eRRB5 or an eRRB6 you will get an email that eRRB6a is ready.

If you order an RRB6 from us you will get an RRB6a when new ones are printed.
